Wouldn't recommend these tires to anyone.

I haven't even put 10k miles on these tires yet and they're already needing to be replaced. Worst mistake I made was not spending good money for good tires. Spend an extra couple hundred for something that will last.

Service was great but not the tires I expected

I was thinking that these were a good set up tires from the ratings but I guess you get what you pay for.

Florida mustang perfect tires

I am hard on tires and these hold up comparably to more expensive sets. Rain every day and they provide excellent traction.

A directional tread pattern boosts performance in wet and dry conditions, and the Desert Hawk UHP's rim guard protects the tire and wheel from curbing and other damage so that drivers can confidently take corners.

  • Directional tread pattern enhances traction and performance on wet and dry roads, even when driving at higher speeds
  • Rim guard within the sidewall protects the tire and wheel against curbing and other damage
  • Solid center rib boosts handling and stability, even when driving at higher speeds

Any info you'are still looking for?

Have a question about Achilles Desert Hawk UHP tires?

Yes, the high silica content of the Achilles Desert Hawk UHP's rubber formulation means low rolling resistance and increased fuel efficiency.

No, the Achilles Desert Hawk UHP is not suitable for use in winter weather conditions or when temperatures are consistently below 45 degrees Fahrenheit. Ultra high performance tires like the Desert Hawk UHP use a softer rubber compound that will stiffen in colder weather which compromises traction.
